This week’s pre-Spring weather coincides serendipitously with some good shows and gigs, so why not get yourself out there on a Wednesday or Thursday and partake? TONIGHT (WEDNESDAY): Copycat, the twice monthly covers series at 14th Street’s fallen Tiki bar Otto’s Shrunken Head, pays tribute to David Bowie tonight. Luxurious Faux Furs are among the [...]
The ‘Presidents’ of Partytown USA
Yeeeeeee-gawwwww! That’s more like it. A real weekend– one with shows and happenings aplenty. Some of you may even have Monday off due to our presidents’ being born and stuff! The weather looks like it will cooperate too, so get on out there! Oh and we reached a real milestone today: the most ridiculous ad [...]

Midweek Heat
Well now, that’s more like it. Actual things, SHOWS even, to go to this January midweek. WEDNESDAY (TONIGHT): Tonight is Copycat‘s annual Sesame Street tribute night at Otto’s Shrunken Head. One of the most inspired and popular editions in this biweekly event, it features covers by bands especially assembled to, well, get really silly. Ursula [...]
